600 million year old cancer gene discovered



Biochemists and biologists at the University of Innsbruck, Austria, have retraced the function of an important human cancer gene 600 million years back in time.
For the first time, they have identified the oncogene 'myc' in a freshwater microorganism and have shown that this oncogene has similar biochemical functions in ancestral metazoan and in humans. The scientists published their findings in PNAS.
The myc gene plays an important role in the growth of organisms. It produces a protein that acts as a gene regulator, which controls the expression of up to 15 % of all human genes. This means that it controls whether these genes are activated or deactivated.
A deregulation of the myc gene leads to uncontrolled cell proliferation and to cancer; a deregulated myc gene occurs in about 30% of all human cancers.
“To get a better understanding of the deregulation process caused by the oncogene, we would have to know which genes are regulated by myc and which of these are important for cancers“, says Klaus Bister from the Institute of Biochemistry at the University of Innsbruck.
Due to the complexity of the human organism, researchers use simpler model systems for their experiments, whose results may then be translated to humans. The Innsbruck scientific teams of Klaus Bister, Markus Hartl and Bert Hobmayer have, for the first time, identified the oncogene in a fresh water polyp (Hydra) and they have shown that it has very similar functions when compared with humans.

The future of technology and education


The future of technology and education

Technology in its current form, serves to provide a sense of ease in school life. In its current form, students can enroll in courses, to send and receive tasks, grades and even view uploaded hear audio conference / video or notes. The technology has also emerged as the best platform available research, it is able to produce a huge range of information, while allowing content to be the latest and most accurate. Without technology provides ease of use make in these areas, students will have more time to be allocated to the monotonous work and less time on important tasks, such as study for the test or test next review all important.  
The future will show simplify things even further. I predict that laptops have progressed to the point that a teacher can interact with all the machines in the class of their own by sending documents, presentations, PowerPoint, video, etc, almost immediately. Perhaps a system similar to the Microsoft Surface is available on every desktop, and students will be able to connect to Windows Live ID and access to the entire student profiles, tasks and always. Future technology will keep us with more connected to school, even if it is there.
The desktop as we know it today has changed and for more than a place "for pictures and wallpapers." The office will be very interactive with the use of widgets, news updates in real time, etc. will also be based on a cloud, you can take your desktop with them, no matter what device or when connected. Students who can not attend class for any reason, you will be able to connect through your desktop in a live channel from the lectures, and, moreover, even participate in discussions, or through voice conferencing or type.
The computer makes the transition from static to dynamic (or cloud) to determine the need to connect and updated independently of the device is very important .. We will come to realize that the class forgot to print the test and you would have your home computer. Within a few clicks, you will have access to all your files. We are already seeing the beginnings of this with Windows Live Mesh and the future looks bright. I can imagine walking into a library on campus that is fully equipped with the surface of the computer that I can be calculated as if it were in my living room.
The offices are fully under the cloud and save all the preferences via a link in Windows Live, which allows multiple access device. The hallmark of the service programs of the Service will continue in use, but perhaps not in isolation. We can see an Office who can do what they did to separate applications or publish a universal file format. OneNote may be able to listen to an intelligent video conferencing and export of key terms based on nuances of the human voice to the importance of intensity, which will add a new dimension to the students to take notes and to increase the effectiveness of students. Smartphones in the future serve as laptops, wireless imagine playing a PowerPoint presentation on your mobile phone into a projector. The ease of exchanging documents through direct transfers between devices similar to the current ability to share music between Zune Zune to Zune will be seamless team collaboration.
Many extracurricular activities will be dominant in future, but may be an influx of political and economic participation of students within the last ten years the improvements in technology have connected existence student real-world problems, it will only become more apparent as technology improves. The opportunity to have their say no matter where you are and what we heard students to strive for something. The course load can be increased and the forecast for the technology means that the student's life would be easier, or the load can not change at all, but the rigor of the courses may increase as students are able to do more and faster. The completion and submission of assignment will be a thing entirely online, perhaps the opportunity to have a trial date as a way to work during the recording, will gather information from a teacher, even before the piece is completed. You'll see more links to award us, our colleagues and our teachers.
When you get to class, leaving vehicles that are eco-friendly students enter a class that is shaping the style of reading, but on the forum and focus on a holographic projector that will allow discussions with members of the academic community living other countries as easily have been in the same room. With this technology, you can have the best teachers in the world of teaching in schools around the world simultaneously. Given the current interest in the environment, the future of schools' carry the torch "from the perspective of environmental education and activism to certify that the investments made under the Credit become useless by the destruction of our planet.
The technology today is the impact is obvious to speculate about the future, provide a sense of awe and excitement. There may be a student when this happened, but maybe I'll go back for some lessons only experience the new environment.
